Bought an ATI 9800 Pro. Then gave the receipt to brother who is known to tear up his room, and so doesn't have a receipt anymore. Is angry that Best Buy won't exchange it for him because he paid in cash and doesn't have any way to prove he bought it from them. Says is pissed at BB, but won't buy an ATI card anymore because he's a dumbass.
It is later found in the thread that he recently purchased a DEAD 9800 pro in the F/S forum. He denies that he wasn't doing what we're all thinking, but here's a screenshot of that in case something happens to the heatware. Posts pictures and puts up argument, sticking to his story. Make your own conclusions.

Thinks Newegg shouldn't take advantage of supply and demand by charging more
for parts that are in low supply. Expects high levels of civility in an ATOT
thread. That should be nuff said as bashing and name calling runs rampant.

This little genius with a license thinks that an accident shouldn't be his fault
because he turned left into incoming traffic at an unprotected turn. States
the other party was "speeding" so it wouldn't be his fault, although Evadman
owns him with some simple math. His post quoted in italics.
How the hell is this not your fault? I don't understand. You misjudged traffic, and moved out to cross trafic when you shouldn't have.
You said there was a hill 100 yards away right? There is no way there was a blind hill 100 yards from a stop light. IIRC the minimum is well over 500. But lets assume you are a good judge of distance (which obviously you are not, but hey.) Lets do some math. The maximum grade is 6% for intersections. Assuming this was a real small truck, lets say 6' tall. At maximum grade, the oncoming car would have been visible for 400 feet by your own admission.
At 40 MPH , it would have taken the oncoming car just over 8 seconds to go from that hill to the intersection. 8 seconds is forever. You could get out of your truck, and run across the intersection in 8 seconds
At 80 MPH (double a normal speed limit), it would have taken just over 4 seconds for the truck to get to you. 4 seconds would be a break in traffic of nearly 200 feet at 40 mph. 200 feet! Even at 80, you could have made the turn with room to spare.
At 160 MPH, You would have had about 1.6 seconds to get out of the intersection. Normal reaction is about 1/2 a second, so that would have given you 1.1 seconds to accelerate into the intersection. In a normal car, this would be about 10 feet, so you would have gotten nailed in the passenger door, not the front corner.
Conclusions: The other driver was doing well over 160 MPH, and is
employed by the Earnhardt family. (I doubt it, you would be dead and I wouldn't
have had to bust out my slide rule.)
Or
You can not judge distance, and after your post here, should never be allowed
within 100 feet of another car. The only problem is we would have to give you
a tape measure so you know what 100 feet is.

Gravity has no place in lilcam's world, as the concept of water travelling to
a lower level is beyond the mental grasp of this grasshopper. He graciously
provided a picture
of his plight so we could better understand his mental handicap. I just don't
have anything else to say as I don't understand how people can be this unlevel.

Self-admitted and an honorary member of this coveted brotherhood, I don't think I can add anything else to his own description. Hopefully pics will be added soon.
Note:10/30/2004Ok, don't laugh at him too much. I partly shaved my left eyebrow this morning. Damn slippery sinks... Anyway, as it said, Nik is an honorary member. I don't really think of him as a dumbass. So, hopefully this means I'm not a dumbass too. Woot!

Ahaha. This one is great. Look at the very title. Best mp3 player that isn't an Ipod. Why? Because the Ipod can't play mp3's. You read right folks, the Ipod mp3 player is incapable of playing mp3's. And he calls me an idiot?

Just one of those threads where they come to ATOT saying how everyone is against them, hoping for some sympathy, but it just turns out they're an idiot and its the person who they're complaining about that should get our sympathy. She (she?) lists in her ebay auction that people paying with Paypal have to compensate for Paypal fees. Yep, it was written very nicely in the auction, even though it is plainly against the TOS. She comes back saying she didn't know, which is kind of forgivable, as isn't ignorance bliss? Blah, I'm just typing on and on, as I don't understand people like this. Proven wrong, and just being a bitch about it. I'll just end it with, added for being a bitch. It felt good writing that. Can't write it on ATOT, but I can write it here.
